3.Spending money on quality TV DVD box-sets like The Sopranos, The Wire or Mad Men, and then watching maybe five episodes in a row.

4.I love watching Friends, sssshhhh! Especially the episode where Ross doesn’t get to take Rachel to the prom.

5.I’ll disappear for an hour on a Sunday morning and park down near the beach in Morningside to browse the Sunday paper.

6.You can’t get me out of a good bookshop. My minimum purchase is usually five or six books – I do judge a book by it’s cover sometimes!

7.Having spent four months with nine points on my driver’s license, I know the speed limit on every stretch of road between here and Belfast. And I know where PC Plod hides with his radar, so I enjoy putting the foot down from time to time – highest speed so far, 126mph, on the M5 at 0555!

8.Taking another fifteen minutes in bed and arriving late into work. Last week’s excuse was that I put brown shoes on in the dark.
